This is how Dr. Henry Jones, Jr. defines archaeology in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, with the addition that "If it's truth you're looking for, Dr. Tyree's philosophy class is right down the hall."

Naming these achievements after Indiana Jones quotes is a great idea and I absolutely love it.

Any thoughts on what title (if any) this'll give?

We already have Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, and just plain Professor, so what next, "Emeritus Professor"?

EDIT: Ah, well... We're almost into Legion and still no title in sight. :{

My progress says 29/30 even though I have solved all rare artifacts. Bug?

Just Completed This today (10/26/2014) and am sad to say it rewards no title or special recognition aside from the achievement itself. Hopefully a new achievement will be offered down the line for WoD

Comment by TamiayTheGnome

No Title, I'm sure many of us are sad that we don't get the title <Name> Jones.

Comment by Langstrump

Is this bugged for anyone else?

It will only count the rares I found in Draenor. I have every single rare pre-Wod, but it still only shows 5/30.

Comment by wargh0st

This achievement is currently bugged for me. I have somehow lost all my pre-WoD archaeology progress, so this achievement is stuck on the number of WoD-rares i have found, 3/30.

EDIT:I have contacted customer support about this issue and got this as a response:

Hi there!

Apologies for the long ticket wait time and thank you for your patience!

Thank you for reporting this issue with the completed artifacts with archaeology and the achievements associated with them. The developers are aware of the issue with them resetting and they are looking into it now. At this moment in time though it is not possible to say if the issue can be resolved or you will need to start again. The developers are doing everything they can to resolve the issue for everyone though. As soon as we have further information to share, this will be provided on the official website and via blue posts on the forums.

We are sadly unable to say how long this will take or replace any completed artifacts for you. Also just so you are aware we have added a new method for reporting in-game bugs. This way you can submit the bug report and it will go directly to the developers!

To submit a bug report in World of Warcraft please open the game menu (Esc) and go to “Help”. There you will find a blue bug icon; you can submit your bug report directly to the developers from here.

One thing to note is that you’ll not actually receive a response if this bug is confirmed and addressed. So you’ll need to keep an eye on the patch notes on the website after a patch!

Kind regards,

The Game Master TeamBlizzard Europe

Edit #2: As of today 11-03-2015 my complete progress has been restored. Needless to say, i also got the achievement awarded.

Comment by Moodknight

There must be an ultimate rare solve-farming title which will keep us going until the end. We deserve it! :)<Name> of the Illuminati or <Name> Jones or Furious Digger <Name>! We want our PhD in arch, blizz!

Fact: This is most boring achievement to do in the game, ever! (cap this at 30: been there done that)

Truth: If you continue to dig for achievements every Xpac you will become an artifact yourself!

1)The best class for this is a druid but if you're like me and queue Bg's and Hdungs while digging you might end up with a non druid class...

1.2) For achievement hunters: wait for hallow's end event you will get instant cast on flying with the magic broom.

2) Try to do the achievement Draenor Curator ( all pristines) first: you will get at least 350 crates to complete olders xpac archeology at the seat of knowledge by buying fragments. Choose your race well( go to tip4)

Ex.: Had 300 crates to use after the achievement and got very lucky at the seat of knowledge got 5 rares, 1 fossilized raptor and a crawling claw. (All Tol'vir and Nelf for me)

#1 Kalimdor: Only place for Nelf(7), Tol'vir(6). Some Troll (3), Fossil(5) in Tanaris and Ungoro #2 Eastern Kingdoms: Only place for Dwarf(4). Some Troll(3) Some Fossil(5)
